What type of camper are you looking at. A pop top caravan type like a Jayco or more a camper trailer. Have a look at my Camel Camper at viewtopic.php?t=1180.

I camped for years with three kids from when they were babes util late teens in a cabin type tent so know where you are coming from. If you are looking at a camper trailer I know that mine would be big enough for a family that size and there is the added comfort of a queen bed for you and your wife.

Trouble is there are so many options on the market these days.

Might be worth while checking out a caravan camping show. Not sure where you are located but here are a few coming up.

Are you willing to pay for a new one first up?Have you thought about secondhand - then if you like it you can buy a new one and make all the modifications needed to that.Or go to a place that hires them out. Look at all the sizes...try this link.

I found it very helpful strarting out.We have a medium size CT with family of four. We need a bigger tent area now. But we bought secondhand so no real loss. We will uograde next year to a bigger newer CT.I don't want to go to the Simpson Desert (done that) so I don't need a huge Off Roader.Good luck!

Any man, in the right situation, is capable of murder. But not any man is capable of being a good camper. So, murder and camping are not as similar as you might think.

The camping and caravan shows are a good way to find out what's on the market. Careful though you can end up confused by the choice. Important to get the things that are important right the rest is a compomise. Crawling baby probably look at a small Jayco or hard floor camper eg cub. Older kids then youn might be looking for floor space so the the soft floor's offer space limited only by how much canvas you want to put up.
